ONStor Inc. CEO Bob Miller is scheduled to make a presentation today at the annual JPMorgan Technology Conference in
ONStor claims its Network Attached Storage products reduce the cost of storage management by consolidating information from multiple Windows, UNIX and Linux devices into a single scalable file storage environment.
This article, published last year in Infoworld, notes that 5 exabytes (that’s 5 million terabytes) of new data were created and stored in 2002. Another study cited in that article predicts that the overall volume of data archived by government and corporations will grow to 27 exabytes by the year 2010. Some of those data will be stored in databases, but much of the new information will be unstructured data created in a variety of formats, including images, sound snippets, data series, and office documents. If Miller's products can reduce the cost of managing these electronic records, that's a story he should tell today. ONStor's Pantera Clustered NAS was selling for about half the cost of similar products from major vendors in this category when it went on sale last year.
